Question

there was a time in history when being left - handed was considered unnatural. obviously, that was a ridiculous notion and is no longer considered accurate. in fact, a glance at a list of prominent left - handers is sufficient to support quite the opposite theory. albert einstein, jimi hendrix, and leonardo da vinci were exceptional left - handers. the good fortune of being born left - handed actually gives you a head start on living a remarkable life. what is wrong with the conclusion that being born left - handed will help you live a remarkable life? 1 it does not consider the reasons why left - handers are a minority in the worlds population. 2 it superficially dismisses historic research without providing relevant supporting details. 3 it is based on a limited sample and fails to consider remarkable right - handed people.

Explanation:

The conclusion that being born left - handed helps one live a remarkable life is based on only a few examples (Albert Einstein, Jimi Hendrix, Leonardo da Vinci). This is a limited sample. Also, it fails to consider the vast number of remarkable right - handed people. Just because a few left - handers are remarkable does not mean left - handedness is the cause of a remarkable life. There could be many other factors (such as talent, opportunity, hard work etc.) that contribute to a person's remarkable achievements, and these factors are not exclusive to left - handers.

Answer:

1. It is based on a limited sample and fails to consider remarkable right - handed people.
